Description

How would it feel to spend time on some of Japan’s most beautiful slopes with a pro athlete? This is your chance to join a top 100 Freeride World Qualifier athlete and ride together!

My name is Masaki Mitsuhisa and I am a top 100 Freeride World Qualifier snowboarder. I am really excited to offer you this half-day of fun on the mountain with me.

Myoko is a stunning mountain range that is located in the Nigata prefecture of Japan. There are 9 separate ski resorts to choose from including, Myoko Ski Park, Akakura and Suginohara, which boasts the longest run in Japan.

It is your choice where we go so take a look and let me know so that I can organise it all.

There will be abundant deep powder snow and, with all the different slopes on offer in this region, it’s impossible to see and try everything!

I am not a snowboard instructor nor am I a certified guide and therefore I am not offering lessons here. Please note that we will remain on piste at all times.

I’ve designed this trip for us to have fun together on the slopes and of course I will be delighted to give you tips and show you my favourite runs.

This is really an amazing opportunity to see how I ride and to see what lines I take!

You need to be at least an intermediate rider. This trip has no pre-determined dates and so I will arrange the groups on an on-demand basis.

If this has got you excited, then sign up now and join me in Myoko for an amazing half-day on the slopes together!

Hello! I'm Masaki Mitsuhisa, a pro snowboarder!

I am based in Myoko, a place renowned for its deep powder. I would define my riding style as "All Mountain Freestyle": I especially enjoy doing jumps and tricks on natural mountain terrain.

I'd love to ride with people who respect Japanese culture, its people and its mountains and who are here to enjoy Japan as a whole.

I welcome riders of all levels! I'm not very good at speaking English so communication could be a little tricky but I'm sure we'll find a way around it.

Lastly, thank you for visiting Japan. I wish you a wonderful trip and I sincerely look forward to riding together!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
